Jennifer S - Missoula, MT 59808 (32.4 mi) - Psychology Tutor - $34.50/hr.
If someone would pay me to be a student, I could continue going to school for my whole life. I love to learn and come from a family of teachers. My award for service learning integrated information from the fields of Education and Sociology to improve learning opportunities for abused children. I have extensive experience writing and editing through professional training (BA in Journalism) and experience (various editing projects). I participated in mentoring projects in my undergrad experience. I co-presented a workshop on Adult Learning Styles at an AmeriCorps conference. With my years of being around and in an educational environment, I have picked up patterns of repetition and summary to reinforce ideas being conveyed. I, myself, learn best by doing. Through studying adult learning styles, I discovered that studies show utilizing all facets of learning - writing, audio, visual, and h

Philip G - Missoula, MT 59808 (36.3 mi) - Psychology Tutor - $36.00/hr.
I greatly enjoy teaching. Much of my style is entertaining and process oriented in nature. Story, metaphor and an understanding of the student having “the idea before the subject being taught” are vital. For me, the underlying concepts are of vital importance before true learning can occur. Knowing what a “mammal” is comes before knowing how we classify “mammals”. Generally, I am able to meet students where they are and utilize “foreword chaining” learning styles with frequent, non boring interactions to progress learning. Rote memory rarely works, but pneumonic, metaphor and story often do. I am very aware of differing learning styles, as well as differing modalities (visual, auditory, kinetic) of learning. I have completed a Master’s Degree in Environmental Science with an emphasis in Communications which stressed the importance of varied communication styles when discussing sci

Barry G - Missoula, MT 59801 (36.9 mi) - Psychology Tutor - $35.00/hr.
I am a passionate believer in individualized education. Good education matches a child’s level, pace of learning, and interests. I am very student-centered in my teaching. I use a variety of means to engage students and to allow self-direction so that students can “work” from their interests. I try to find the place where the student’s interests and level meet the demands of the subject matter. That is the place from which meaningful learning and individual growth can happen. I also have a strong commitment to quality. For example, I believe that it is very important for older students to apply themselves to reading closely, thinking analytically, and writing well. I try to show them that these difficult tasks are essential to empowering themselves as learners and persons. I have been involved in the field of education since 1982, when I directed and co-designed the residential componen

Bodhi M - Missoula, MT 59801 (37.3 mi) - Psychology Tutor - $35.50/hr.
I am passionate about teaching and learning, and I love all people. I am an advocate of task-based learning, multiple intelligences, and the all-around inductive/constructivist approach to learning. I am a firm believer in the idea that all people have the same innate capacity to learn, but that this is manifested in different ways. This is particularly important because I beleive a good teacher should be able to discover the individual and specific ways that a student relates or acquires information best (visually, aurally, kinesthetically etc.) and can then take that information and develop appropriate excercises and teaching materials to help maximize that student's learning experience. Different teaching styles are needed for different learning styles, and I will accomodate as necessary. My goal in studying linguistics is to become a professional ESL teacher. I am very much interest

Kelly L - Missoula, MT 59801 (37.8 mi) - Psychology Tutor - $36.50/hr.
I was a substitute teacher assistant for children with special needs ages 3-21, on and off for the past 6 years. I have 6 months of experience in outdoor education teaching various science classes and other outdoor, leadership and art classes/skills. I also tutored college undergrads in calculus and botany for a year in college. My teaching style has been a very hands-on approach in the past due to my experience with environmental education. As a tutor, I strive to offer my assistance in a way children can understand.

Suzanne R - Missoula, MT 59801 (37.9 mi) - Psychology Tutor - $29.50/hr.
I have made several practical--as well as scholarly--studies of learning styles that inform my teaching style. I am a facilitative teacher, one who listens attentively and watches closely to determine my students' learning style preferences and abilities in order to help my students build new skills upon those strengths already developed. My greatest joy is the look on my students' faces when they come to understand something that has resisted their comprehension before I began working with them. I was trained and worked as a Master Tutor to pay my way through both my associate's and my bachelor's degrees' schooling, tutoring math subjects from algebra to biometrics and statistics, and English (academic) writing skills. I taught developmental math at a community college and math for elementary school teachers at a four-year teacher's college, both in New York State, for five years. I tau

Molly G - Missoula, MT 59804 (38.4 mi) - Psychology Tutor - $39.50/hr.
I love working with children. I am patient and understanding, and I have a knack for explaining things in alternate ways. I am organized, reliable and I have good communication skills. I like to make things interesting by bringing in outside media and examples. I have earned a BS degree in Zoology from the University of Wisconsin. I excelled in the biological sciences and in Spanish in college. I am also a proficient writer and editor. I have worked in education by volunteering, teaching at a nature center, teaching swim lessons, and some informal education at summer programs.

Justice P - Bigfork, NV 59911 (43.5 mi) - Psychology Tutor - $36.00/hr.
I have always possessed a love for and interest in the phenomena of our natural world. This has driven me to obtain a B.S. degree in Biology with a minor in Chemistry. I have loved sharing this knowledge with others and building fascination in others for the world around us. As a tutor in college biology for the past two years, Chemistry Merit Badge Counselor for Boy Scouts, and assistant in a fifth grade cell biology class, I have been able to pursue this love. Learning is a process more than an experience. The greatest satisfaction I had as a tutor was when my tutees gained a love for their subject, their minds became engaged, and they began asking questions of their own and finding answers. These moments were when I knew that I was successful. The most impactful teachers I had were those that taught me to love learning and incorporate knowledge into my own life. Helping others not onl
